Does Kwame Brown have a realistic chance at becoming a star on the Lakers?

He actually got over that the second half of last season, then they switched to the new ball and it started again...Hopefully he cuts down on the turnovers when the new ball comes back.

I don't give a fuck about the ball, there's no excuse for a 6'11 professional basketball player to drop that many passes & miss that many layups. I've always somewhat liked Kwame but watching him on the offensive end really makes me nervous.

I donno what would be better....having Kwame and Bynum as we do, or having Kwandrew Brownum.....a 20 year old 7'1, solid frame big man who plays with heart, good at defense against any star big man in the league , can run up and down the court easy, gets good blocks, isn't scared to shoot, dunks the ball when it's thrown to him and doesn't drop the damm ball!!! Both of them need to develop, and it feels like it's things Kwame can do better than Bynum, mainly because of age and a bit more athleticism...but he still does dumb, annoying shit that Bynum doesn't do.

^^Damn, you guys are exaggerating though...It doesn't happen THAT often any more. Kwame averages 1.9 turnovers, while someone like Yao Ming averages 3.8!...Yea, he's not been impressing us lately, but dude's still averaging about 9 points and 7 boards on 56% shooting, with over 1 block and 1 steal per game...That disappoints us, see how much we've come to expect out of Kwame? Dude's still young, I say he only continues growing from here...PeACe

Thing is, turnovers alone don't show that he drops these balls. Usually, he'll still get the ball back..but he has messed up a LOT of easy dunks (well layups for him most of the time) because Kobe or Luke would throw him the ball off of a no look or whatever, and he would drop the ball, and by the time he picked it back up, the defender would be right there on him.

Yao Ming's 3 turnovers also comes with 25 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 blocks on 52% shooting. I can live with that! I think eventually Kwame will get tired of people (rather it be fans or his peers) saying how he's a fuck up and he'll go out there and become the 10/10 Kwame that I'm hoping for.

dude's been in the league how long? give him at least 2 or three more years before you start demeaning him

How long? Ummm....01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06....damn that's five years. I don't ever talk down on him like that, and I know that he's still gettin better. But even ignoring the fact that he's a bust or near bust, it's just too much lil shit he does that will annoy the hell out of us....ESPECIALLY the fact that we know he could easily be a lot better, because most of his errors are mental and have nothing to do with his pure physical ability.

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

LMAO@Jacob ...That was classic. But yea, he's improving. I think you guys just have the images of the last game stuck in your head, cuz he's honestly improved on it IMO and will only keep on improving...
